Bourbon Barrel Talk Jeremy Minton

The crew reviews these exceptionally hard to find wheated bourbons. The Makers Cellar age is the oldest Makers that I am aware of, as is the Select Stock Wheat from Heaven Hill. Both are sweet and tasty, but one is just a bomb of flavor. 

The crew reviews the 2019 release of Mic Drop from PM Spirits. These releases tend to be fairly good and solid MGP blends. While their early releases were older, the newer ones have been 4-6 years old. 

The Den of Thieves take over the Brock's and review 3 super unique barrels available right now in Old Louisville's Single Barrel Program. We reviewed two 36% high rye MGP, a 8 yr Columbian Oak, 11 yr Regular and a 51/49 rye/malt barrel. Check out Old Louisville Whiskey Company for your next single barrel selection. 

The crew sits down and discusses two Derby Cocktail that are alternatives to the Mint Julep, Spire and Lilly. The Ky. Buck is a refreshing take on the Ky Mule, and The Forbidden Sour is a refresh of a whiskey sour, made with pomegranate liquor. 

The crew interviews and talks High West Distillery with Isaac Winter - Blending and Distilling Manager.  We discussed his background in the industry, his early career as a brewer and yeast guru, and what he does for fun. We discuss the Bottled in Bond Rye, Bourye and other expressions and what makes them unique. 

The crew sits down and reviews the 26th iteration of the Old Foresters President's Choice Bourbon. The PC bottles are a select group of chosen barrels that the Master Taster and Master Distiller set aside for the President to chose as their favorites and so PC's are born.
